Alfa Laval – a world leader in heat transfer, centrifugal separation and fluid
handling – has won an order to supply Framo pumping systems to Samsung Heavy
Industries in South Korea. The order, booked in the Marine & Offshore Pumping
Systems segment, has a value of approximately SEK 240 million and delivery is
scheduled for 2015.
The order is comprised of offshore pumping systems for an FPSO (Floating
Production Storage and Offloading vessel). The vessel is commissioned by Total
S.A. and will be built by Samsung. Once completed, the vessel will be anchored
outside the Nigerian coast.
“I am pleased to announce the first large order for offshore pumping systems
since the Framo brand was included in our offering through the acquisition of
Frank Mohn AS,” says Lars Renström, President and CEO of the Alfa Laval Group.
“These products fit very well into our portfolio of reliable and efficient
products for the marine and offshore oil and gas market.”
Did you know that… the FPSO shall be moored in the Egina field, a collection of
reservoirs at a water depth of approximately 1500 meters, offshore Nigeria for a
continuous service period of up to 25 years?
